Born Of Fire is a song by Slayer which appears on their record Seasons In The Abyss. The track opens up in an extremely fast and aggressive fashion, a lot of this thanks to Dave Lombardo’s drumming during the intro. Araya soon comes in with the traditional Slayer lyrics, …

Part of the lyrics, ‘I hate you, but I love you’ from the song, Stuck by Stacie Orrico. I think she’s half Latin or something. She looks kind of gorgeous and this song is super amazing. Something that I have listened to over the years but seemingly …

One of my favorite performers throughout my life has been Donny Osmond, so I strive to get all the CDs, though I haven’t been able to do that as much in recent years. However, I was able to get the Donny Osmond: Somewhere in Time CD which lists …

The melodic rock genre has been privvy to somewhat of a mass resurgence over the last six or seven years, and it seems that it’s almost gaining enough steam to be as popular as it was in the Eighties. Sure some countries are yet to fully embrace the style, …

Well the first saying that comes to mind when I think of Taylor guitars is “you get what you pay for”. Now, in some situations I have experienced this saying to be untrue. Such as, overpriced restaraunts with poor quality of food, salon grade hair products that …

We rode in trucks by Luke Bryant is a song that makes me think of the small town I live in cause I know what it is like to grow up like he is talking about. Trucks are a common thing among these parts. This song shows how it …

Off his Victims of the future album hard rock and blues guitarist Gary Moore did a cover of Shapes off Things by the yardbirds. His version he does is a cool hard rock style rendition of the track. Gary really jams hard on this one I like his awesome …

Michael Jackson’s latest posthumously released album entitled “Michael”, has been out for nearly four months now. As an avid fan of MJ and his music, I’m rather pleased with the results. Obviously, the tracks lack Jackson’s signature polish and sometimes you can tell where the engineers did something that …

I can’t even begin to explain the excitement that I felt when I heard that Opio from the Hieroglyphics crew would be dropping a solo release. He has always been one of my favorite rappers from the Hieroglyphics crew. The first time I heard word of his solo album …

College is a song by Animal Collective which appears on their album Sung Tongs. The track opens up with a brief spoken section before the vocals to the track come in along with an odd background noise which I’m not sure how to characterize. The vocal harmony goes on …

Honestly, I do not like video with kissing. I do not like cuddling and caressing seriously and I do not know why. What I like in the video is, it should be colorful, funny and interesting to watch. Thinking of you is plain and black for me. The only …

21 Guns is a song by Green Day which appears on their most recent studio effort, 21st Century Breakdown. I believe that this track is the second single released in promotion of the record, with Know Your Enemy being the first, and I firmly believe that 21 Guns is …

The Hieroglyphics crew is one of the tightest and most original Hip Hop crews on the planet. Their Rap flow is littered with witty one-liners, metaphors and and expanded vocabulary that goes beyond the street talk and cliche’ lyrics of typical Rap music. Consisiting of members A-Plus, Opio, Del …

“Precious Burden” is the 2nd studio album from Swedish pop sensation Sophie Zelmani. Her second album takes a darker turn compared to her debut album (Sophie Zelmani) as it deals with the concept of death and loss.
The album opens with the gloomy “Leaving”, a heartwrenching ballad about a woman …

“Fun, Fun, Fun” is one of the best known of The Beach Boys’ 1960s hit songs, and it has kept what I think is a deserved popularity right up to the present day. It is a short song, at only two and a third minutes in length, and it …

Good Night is a song by The Beatles which is the final track on their self-titled album, or The White Album. Good Night opens up with this very majestic sounding string section which has this very corny sound to it to be honest but I know this is what …

Unfortunately the excellent Neuropa album “The Blitz”, with its (admittedly fairly obvious) World War 2 type plane design on the front, is not easily obtainable in physical form in the United Kingdom, although it is offered by Amazon in individual track form as MP3 downloads. This is rather a …

If you like Jazz, then this is a must buy. Rather than getting Billy Holiday or Nina Simone go for something a bit older. Fats Waller was one of the Jazz greats of the 20’s and 30’s and this double compilation CD shows exactly why. Don’t …

I like it, I love it by Tim McGraw is my favorite song because it is my friends ring tone and he is in love with country music. This song is so romantic because it talks about how much this guy likes this girl and how much he …

This album has a weird title, and God knows this is a rather bad one. I like Oasis a lot. I love their first three records. And I love the singing of Liam Gallagher. Liam is a very gifted singer. His voice is a gift from above. But this …

KISS
A rock and roll classic! One of the best LP’s of the 1970’s.
This was the bands first album and it debuted in 1973 and no one bought it (it ended up going platinum after the band became a worldwide sensation) An underrated masterpiece.
1973 was too early for the world …

Maroon 5 is the great alternative rock band that I always love. Their song is always make my emotion speak and feel like I’m involved in their song like this one —˜Must Get Out’. This song is from the album —˜Songs About Jane’, and again, this song is also …

One of my favourite alternative rock bands since I discovered my love for rock music in high school is the band Chevelle. I discovered them in high school when I saw one of their music videos playing on MTV one day after school, and I fell even more in …

A song that I really like off the new Slash album released a year ago is the track I hold on. This song features vocals by Kid Rock and of course the guitar arrangements were written and played by Slash. This song starts by fading in and getting …

This is another album that was released after the death of J Dilla. This will be his final album, and will actually feature lyrics instead of just instrumentals. The CD guests include appearances by Common, J. Rocc, Guilty Simpson, Busta Rhymes, and many other underground and mainstream rappers. Dilla …

I first heard the song entitled Defense on a local radio station and I was instantly hooked to it. This was mainly because of the background music which is just addictive and just makes you feel like getting up and dancing as soon as you hear it. It wasn’t …

Penguin Penguin is a song by Animal Collective and is the second track on their second release, Danse Manatee. Opening abruptly from the previous track, the song has a similar feeling to the opening song on the record except it goes to even further extremes. Whereas A Manatee Dance …

People might shrug by the musical genre called Melodic death Metal as this is a subgenre not worth the mention with bands churning sub-par albums from this genre.But to this Finnish metal maniacs going by the name of Omnium Gatherum,they have managed to infuse this once infected genre with …

The Ceiling Is Bendin’ is a song by the Flaming Lips and the sixth song on their album Oh My Gawd. Opening up with a drum and bass part which fades in and out repeatedly, Coyne comes in with the vocals of the track which thankfully has some character …

I know that the band’s name is somewhat hard to pronounce (I even heard one time my classmate said, “Cheveches” and I was like, what?”) but really, it’s just pronounced as “Churches”, they’re just probably bad in the spelling department!
But thankfully enough, their music is nowhere near as bad …

I have known about this song for a while now, since it came out a few years ago. But I had no idea that it was by Miranda Lambert. The only time I had ever heard of her is when she won the award for best female video at …

When Two Worlds Collide is a song by Iron Maiden which appears on their album Virtual XI. The song opens up with a somewhat ominous sounding part which is driven by this interesting clean guitar part before Bayley comes in with the vocals of the track. I’ll be honest …

As one of the earliest songs from Circa Survive, “Handshakes at Sunrise” remains one of my favorites, if only for its sentimental value. Displaying a sound that would become standard for the band, you get a feel for where they started, and how the sound of their early music …

I love albums that have the simple ability to split band’s fan bases right down the middle for a battle to the death. I guess there is a fair few albums like this across the rock & metal world, but maybe none more so that Russian Roulette from German …

Keith Jarrett who was a saxophone player, kicked off the music industry by releasing an album in June 1999. The album’s title is very simple, Simply Said and released under the label Warner Bros. This album is the fifth album, the results of cooperation with the recording company, …

When Britney Spears was in her prime I was never really a big fan of her. I did like some of her songs, just not all of them. When she went through her difficult time of cutting off her hair and locking herself in the bathroom, I thought it …

Say what you will about her as a trainwreck of a celebrity - Courtney Love knows how to rock. There were always rumors and whispers that her band Hole was only ever popular because she’s most famous as the widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. But Love …

Overview - Goodbye, Cream’s final record, is an album split into three previously heard live tracks and three brand new tracks recorded in the studio. Both of these categories has something to offer that the other doesn’t and this concept is actually a pretty interesting one. If I were …

“Not the Half Has Been Told” CD by Monica McCoy is one music album that uplifts my soul and spirit. The selections are filled with blessings! Each time I’d hear this music album it made me think that singing songs for Jesus is a worshipping experience. It is not …

The genius musicianship of R. Kelly was put to the test again on his 4th album “TP-2.com”. The album name serves as a continuation from his first album “12 Play”, with this album acting as the sequel: “Twelve Play-2”. Although 12 play was named because it consisted of 12 …

The Abandoned Hospital Ship is a song by the Flaming Lips which appears on their album Clouds Taste Metallic. The track opens up with Coyne coming in with the vocal delivery immediately and singing in front of a subtle piano playing behind him. In my opinion, the track sounds …

“I Know Somethin (Bout You)” is a rather interesting song. It appears on Alice In Chains album “Facelift”. What makes this song so interesting is that it doesn’t really have that Alice in Chains feel to it, except for in the chorus. It actually sounds like it could be …
